				    <p>Using CruiseControl.NET with AccuRev</p>

<p>CruiseControl.NET has the following integration with <a href="http://www.accurev.com">AccuRev, Inc.'s</a> <a href="http://www.accurev.com/accurev.html">AccuRev</a> source control system:</p>

<h3><a name="UsingCruiseControl.NETwithAccuRev-SettingupanAccuRevworkspaceforusewithCruiseControl.NET"></a>Setting up an AccuRev workspace for use with CruiseControl.NET</h3>

<p>CruiseControl.NET cannot automatically create a workspace from AccuRev - it can only perform updates. Before you start you must therefore create the workspace you want to integrate, specifying its location as a directory on your integration server. You can do this using the normal AccuRev client (command line or GUI).</p>

<p>Make a note of the full path of your working directory (the uppermost directory that got checked out) since you're going to need that data for configuring your CruiseControl.NET server.</p>

<p>You'll also need the AccuRev command line client installed on the integration server.</p>

<h3><a name="UsingCruiseControl.NETwithAccuRev-ConfiguringCruiseControl.NET"></a>Configuring CruiseControl.NET</h3>

<p>You need to make sure you use the <tt>accurev</tt> Source Control block within your project. Read up on this configuration block here: <a href="AccuRev Source Control Block.html" title="AccuRev Source Control Block">AccuRev Source Control Block</a>.</p>

<h3><a name="UsingCruiseControl.NETwithAccuRev-AutomaticSourceUpdates"></a>Automatic Source Updates</h3>

<p>To have CCNet automatically retrieve the latest version of the source from AccuRev prior to running a build, you should set the <tt><a href="AccuRev Source Control Block.html#AccuRevSourceControlBlock-autoGetSource">autoGetSource</a></tt> attribute to <b><tt>true</tt></b>.</p>

<h3><a name="UsingCruiseControl.NETwithAccuRev-AutomaticLabelling%28snapshoting%29"></a>Automatic Labelling (snapshoting)</h3>

<p>To have CCNet automatically create an AccuRev snapshot after a successful build, you should set the <tt><a href="AccuRev Source Control Block.html#AccuRevSourceControlBlock-labelOnSuccess">labelOnSuccess</a></tt> attribute to <b><tt>true</tt></b>. The label itself is specified by your choice of <a href="Labeller Blocks.html" title="Labeller Blocks">label generator</a>, one of which (the <a href="Last Change Labeller.html" title="Last Change Labeller">Last Change Labeller</a>) can build a label based on the AccuRev transaction number.</p>

<p>The contents of the snapshot will be the workspace's basis stream as of the most recent transaction included in the build.</p>
